Road to Nowhere 2: Going Nowhere Fast, Sat 4th Nov, Scotland

Post by Jules75 »

Yes, we're back! Nero, MissieD, Roaders and Jules are proud to present Road to Nowhere 2: Going Nowhere Fast! After the success of the original Road to Nowhere event (click here for pics!), we thought we'd find another road that goes nowhere!

Here are the essential R2N2 details so far:

* Time and Date: Saturday 4th November at Stirling services. Meet at 10am for a 10.30am departure. Back to the services for about 3.30pm.

Our meet point will be at the main services car park (not at the petrol station). Stirling services is well signposted, and is accessible from all major routes.

Image

* Route: Starting at Stirling services we take the back roads up into the Campsie Hills for our first photo stop. Then its down into the Trossachs and onto the road to nowhere. We'll stop for a pub lunch on the shores of Loch Lomond and some more pics. After that we drive up the Dukes Pass (for more photos) and then back to Stirling services via some nice twisty roads.

* Evening: There will most likely be an (optional) evening session of food and drink for those that are interested. Not sure if it will be E'burgh or Glasgow based though.

Interested? The please PM me the following details:

* Your name (and passenger if you're bringing one)
* Details of your car (model, reg, and colour)
* Mobile number
* Evening - if you want to join us for the evening session please state if Glasgow or Edinburgh suits best.

That's about it for now. We'll post more info and pics as we get them!

You can chat about the event here

Here are some pics from our other meets:

Please note, this is an informal and casual gathering of friends and like minded individuals. This is not a formal or official forum event. We accept no liability for any accident or incident. We're just here to have fun!

A quick wipe with a petrol soaked rag should get most of it off. :D

Although it was overcast for most of the day, fortunately we had no rain - so it was top-down motoring all day

Nothing is as frustrating as arguing with someone who knows what he's talking about.
